  • 본 연구는 의료종사자를 대상으로 단축형 도구를 개발하여 기존 도구와 비교하고, 생명의료윤리 의식 측정의 신뢰도를 높이기 위한 목적이었다. G도에 소재한 의료종사자 211명을 대상으로 자료수집 하였다. IBM SPSS WIN/21.0을 이용하여 베리맥스 회전추출방법을 이용하여 탐색적 요인분석을 하였으며, 원도구 점수와의 회귀분석 및 상관분석을 통해 도구의 수렴타당도를 검증하고, 급내상관계수와 내적일관성 계수를 산출하여 신뢰도를 검증하였다. 21개 문항으로 단축한 도구는 49개 문항 원 도구의 생명의료윤리의식의 84%를 반영하고 있으며, 간호대학생을 대상으로 한 29개의 단축형 도구보다 도구의 신뢰도가 높았으나, 하위영역의 구성문항과 신뢰도계수의 차이가 있었다. 추후 하위영역별 도구의 신뢰도를 높이기 위해 질적연구와 대상자 인터뷰를 통한 추가 문항개발이 필요하며, 다양한 윤리적 딜레마가 있는 임상현장에서 타당도와 신뢰도가 확보된 도구로 생명의료윤리 의식 측정이 필요하며 이에 대한 반복연구가 요구된다.

  • This article investigates ethical challenges cancer patients face in the end stages of life including doctors' responsibilities, patients' rights, unexpected desires of patients and their relatives, futile treatments, and communication with patients in end stages of life. These patients are taken care of through palliative rather than curative measures. In many cases, patients in the last days of life ask their physician to terminate their illness via euthanasia which has many ethical considerations. Proponents of such mercy killing (euthanasia) believe that if the patient desires, the physician must end the life, while opponents of this issue, consider it as an act of murder incompatible with the spirit of medical sciences. The related arguments presented in this paper and other ethical issues these patients face and possible solutions for dealing with them have been proposed. It should be mentioned that this paper is more human rational and empirical and the views of the legislator are not included, though in many cases human intellectual and empirical comments are compatible with those of the legislator.

  • 본 연구는 응급구조과 대학생의 죽음의식, 연명치료중단에 대한 태도, 생명의료윤리인식의 수준을 파악하고, 생명의료윤리인식에 영향을 미치는 요인을 확인하기 위해 시도되었다. 연구대상은 D시에 소재한 일개대학 응급구조과 재학생 228명을 대상으로 시행하였으며, 자료수집은 2019년 4월부터 6월까지 자기보고식 구조화된 설문지를 이용하였다. 연구결과로 생명의료윤리인식과 연명치료중단에 대한 태도 간에는 정적 상관관계가 있는 것으로 분석되었다(r=.63, p<.001). 다중회귀분석결과, 생명의료윤리인식에 영향을 미치는 요인은 종교(β=.12)와 연명치료중단에 대한 태도(β=.61)로 41.0%의 설명력을 나타냈다. 따라서 생명의료윤리인식을 향상시키기 위해 응급구조과 학생들의 교육프로그램은 연명치료중단에 대한 태도에 초점을 맞추어야 할 것이다.

In addition, those what is particularly meaningful about hospice and palliative care in terms of legal aspects are discussed the determination of the purpose of care and the provision of medical adaptability and adult guardianship, in particular the legal criteria for the work and status of patient representatives.

In conclusion, the medical institutional ethics committee should play an active role, especially in the case of no-agents/family or no intention of the patient.
